FutureEverything - The City as Living Lab or Play SpaceDrew Hemment
My keynote presentation at Metropolis Lab in Copenhagen on 28 June on the FutureEverything festival as a living lab, an approach developed in collaboration with ImaginationLancaster.
Cities like San Francisco need help - but conventional planning processes make it difficult to implement great ideas for civic improvement.
Urban Prototyping (UP) complements these processes by rapidly designing, testing, and scaling new projects that improve civic life.
UP takes projects from prototypes to city pilots to refined products.
UP Cities around the world design and test prototypes through large-scale public Festivals that engage local communities.
The first UP San Francisco Festival was held in October 2012 as a flagship event in San Francisco’s first Innovation Month. On October 20, 2012, six blocks of downtown San Francisco became a living laboratory for urban experiments.
The 2012 Festival featured:
5000+ visitors
23 urban prototypes
40+ audio, visual, and dance performers
25+ renowned speakers in design, art, and technology.
Original UP concept by Gray Area and Rebar.

Taiste presented their case study for Helsinki Festival: For the Night of the Arts 2014 they designed a mobile app which encouraged the visitors to participate the event by creating a live art map of the event. The application visualised the people's movements and activity on a live map. In addition they set up a special MapLab to the area with the idea of engaging the people to contribute content on the map — and to thousands of phones and urban screens around the city.

The eyes want to have it: Multimedia Handhelds in the Museum (an evolving story)Peter Samis

A argument for academics to get on board the open-source sea change in digital media creation and teach their students new tools for digital creativity beyond proprietary software applications, but programming skills to make their own along with stunning creations.
In Media Arts, the creative process is often relegated to the realm of the unexplainable, shrouded in mystery and mysticism, yet there is a long tradition of attempts to more formally model artistic and creative processes. Philosophers have developed a a number of normative models for artistic creation, from Hegel's characterization of art as a path to self-consciousness to Dewey's representation of art as the sum of our intentions and experiences. I will discuss models (both classical and contemporary) of creative practice and experience and their potential application to new media arts and technology. These new models that connect the roles of creator and viewer/participant have redefined participatory design, art, and theater. This introduces a new role for a new breed of artist: to catalyze new ideas and foster creative collaboration across disciplines.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
